Turtles are doing surprisingly well. We have smails in the fish tanks too. well and fish in the turtle tank sometimes. I thought we were going to be like UT at one point, but Mr. Liscous got it when they were both confined to a small tank during cleaning.....

Excellent. I'm hoping that I can get Turt into better conditions in my move.

Currently his 40-gallon breeder tank is on a tilt, because the floor is tilted!

Will he want a room-mate when things are set up nice? We inherited a female red eared slider that lil' Pete can't keep in her dorm...

Six cats. Two are boomerang pets that belong(ed) to two of our kids; the other four are long-term. It doesn't matter; they're all cute and we have enough room for each to have some territory to call his/her own.

I'm not sure if I have a pet, or if Carrot has a human.

Well you can have a slave and you can have a master. I chose my verb carefully ;) the noun was a little trickier, but as pet does not necessarily imply inferiority/superiority, I thought I could get away with it :D

orthodoc 01-25-2015 09:17 PM

There are so many more subtle nuances than slave and master ... I don't think humans and others in the animal kingdom need have that relationship. Steward... caretaker ... friend. I like those better.

monster 01-25-2015 09:19 PM

Slave and master were examples to make the point :rolleyes:

orthodoc 01-25-2015 09:32 PM

Not throwing spears at you, monster ... you said the noun was trickier. I just threw out a couple of other choices.
